🎓 Arrived Awka for Paul University Convocation Lecture I arrived in Awka this evening to deliver the Convocation Lecture at the 5th Combined Convocation Ceremony of Paul University, Awka. 📘 Topic: Instilling the Mekaria Spirit: The Role of Universities in Shaping Leaders for a New Age 📅 Date: Friday, 17th October 2025 🕚 Time: 11:00 AM 🏛️ Venue: Paul University Auditorium (Nnawka Building) The lecture explores the Mekaria spirit — the hunger for knowledge, the curiosity that drives learning, the spirit of continuous excellence, and the buccaneering adventure that has always propelled humanity forward. As we enter the Intelligence Age, I will reflect on how African universities can nurture a new generation of leaders — curious, competent, and committed to building inclusive, data-driven, and innovative societies.
